Wow, interesting thread.
I have never charged more for HDV than i do for SD. There is a difference in production. You need to double up on the lighting when you shoot HDV over SD.
I edit all of my scenes before i turn them in. And the thats where you will see the difference. SD renders out in 2-10 minutes where HDV renders out in 4 hours. The shooter cant really bitch, but the editor really has room to bitch and moan.
I edit my scenes in 15 minutes max, because i shot it and know how it was shot, (right). But to then add 4 hours of render time to that does kinda blow.
At the end of the day, i dont charge more for HDV and i dont see the reason for other producers to charge more.
